Very exciting and interesting results from the DD holes. These holes are the south of project. No RC drill hole assay is received from here yet. However Chris Connell decided to drill this area and found huge pegmatites.
Well done guys.
They have discovered a very thick (80-100m) and probably very high grade blind (not outcropping) pegmatites under the flat lying 30m pegmatite at the Black Diamond prospect at the south of Beecher project. (The grade will be known after the assays in 2 months).
The RC holes drilled and intersected good pegmatites at the north will be drilled deeper by DD holes and it's highly probable that they will discover those blind (not outcropping) pegmatites under the Longview's shallow pegmatites.
IMO this is a big discovery.
The Beecher project might come up as a big and high grade resource. It has two prospects; Longview and Black Diamond
The Black Diamond area is the at the south. Most of the RC holes last year were drilled at the Longview area at the north as you can see on the drill plan. Then 12 more RC holes was drilled toward the south of project.
The first hole BDD-23-001 intersected 39m of pegmatite (est. true width).
The second hole BDD-23-002 initially intersecting 30m of pegmatite (est. true width).
Adecision to continue the hole deeper intersected a much wider 93.5m intersection of pegmatite containing zones rich in spodumene. Well done..!
The second, wider pegmatite may represent the true extension of the Black Diamond Mine that is contained in a 80m -100m wide pegmatite.
"Most of the RC holes drilled along strike to the north of the Black Diamond mine only intersected 30m – 40m wide zones of mineralized pegmatite which are now interpreted as a flat lying pegmatite offshoot of the larger Black Diamond pegmatite".
That means we can discover the same blind very thick (80-100m) pegmatites under the first falt l
As it's said on the anns; the outcropping pegmatites are only a small part of the potential of the Black Hills. Many pegmatites are blind, or where they do outcrop are zoned with the lithium rich zones, not exposed".
I was wondering the geometry of those pegmatites. However they didn't want to give a speculative cross section image like the others are doing in ASX (AZS and other give those very speculative cross sections and I don't really like them).
It's said on the anns; "Additional holes are required before the geometry of the western Beecher pegmatites can be modelled with confidence".
Well done again. I don't want any speculative games around those projects either.
Let's wait and see how the other 20+12 holes will come up. (some including from the Black Diamond area). I think DD will continue btw.
